1. Title: A New Dormitory at St Marylebone Workhouse, London (1900). This photograph captures the interior of a new dormitory at the St Marylebone Workhouse, located on Marylebone Road in London, dating back to the year 1900. The St Marylebone Workhouse was established in the late 18th century to provide relief and shelter for the destitute, the elderly, and the infirm, who were unable to support themselves. The image reveals a large, sparsely furnished room, with long rows of wooden beds neatly arranged along the walls. Each bed is separated by a thin partition, providing a minimal degree of privacy for the occupants. The room appears to be dimly lit, with only a few small windows allowing natural light to filter in. The atmosphere is somber and austere, reflecting the harsh realities of life for the paupers who resided in the workhouse. The St Marylebone Workhouse was known for its strict regime, which aimed to instill discipline and self-reliance in its inhabitants. Inmates were expected to work for their keep, performing tasks such as sewing, knitting, or farming. The workhouse system, which was in place from the late 17th to the mid-20th century, was a controversial aspect of British social policy, with critics arguing that it subjected the poor to inhumane living conditions and forced labor. Despite its challenges, the St Marylebone Workhouse also served as a vital resource for those in need, providing essential services and support during times of hardship. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, shedding light on the living conditions of the paupers who sought refuge in the workhouse system.
